Rainy Day Boots

I've heard an awful lot about what winter looks like in San Francisco, and saw a supposedly early version of that rainy winter season this week. I'm not quite sure just how rainy this winter will be, but compared to the past six years of 300 days of Colorado sunshine, I'm gonna go ahead that and say that no matter what I need me some rain boots. I'm deciding between two versions: Hunter originals and Hunter shorts. The originals sort of feel like the Audrey Hepburn of outdoors clothing. Elegant, sophisticated, clean. And the shorts then are the Cate Blanchett--original, punky, fresh. Since I can't decide where I lie, I welcome any and all opinions! Not to mention the colors they come in...
